The box set editions offer the album remastered (on CD or 2LP vinyl), a CD (or 2LPs) of single remixes and edits (including the legendary promo-only ‘Damn Near 10 Min’ remix of ‘Gett Off’), three CDs (5LPs) of ‘Vault’ songs , all 33 of which are previously unreleased, and a live concert from January 1992 at Prince’s Minneapolis club, Glam Slam, which served as a preview of the Diamonds and Pearls tour (2CDs or 3LPs). This has been newly mixed from the 24-track master tape.


The blu-ray included with both 7CD and 12LP vinyl super deluxe editions includes the Glam Slam concert shot in high definition with sound mixed to Dolby Atmos, 5.1 or stereo. It also features Prince & The New Power Generation’s performance at The Special Olympics at the Metrodome in Minneapolis in July 1991 along with the soundcheck for that same performance (again, sound is Dolby Atmos, 5.1 or stereo). Finally the Blu-ray is completed by the inclusion of the Diamonds And Pearls Video Collection, originally released on VHS and LaserDisc in 1993. This is stereo-only.


The only way to own the new Dolby Atmos Mix of the Diamonds and Pearls album is to buy the limited edition blu-ray audio, which is available to pre-order now from the SDE shop. Alongside the Atmos Mix is the remastered stereo version of the album.


The reissue is also available as 2CD and 4LP sets (album & remixes/edits) and as single CD and 2LP editions with the latter being available pressed as a standard black vinyl edition or pressed on clear ‘diamond’ vinyl.
